Great find

Just one or two pictures have not turned out correctly (I just see link for them instead)

 

Thanks for sharing :D

I love that first photo, it looks like it was a rainy day, but even if not, the tons and dark colours make a really suiting atmosphere. Also enjoying the decomposing Nissan and I spot a Capri that I'd have drooled over. I wonder if it's as wounded as everything else there.

 

The Sprint looks sad with missing headlights. Think i'm drawn to quad headlights and I always liked the front of Dolomites but seeing them without lights just seems a shame.

notice how the british steel is a little rusty while the later model jap car is totally rotten

Yep, the FWD 1300, made from British steel, looks better than the green Dolly, made bang in the middle of the Russian (as used in Alfasuds) steel era, so by that logic; why are there not more 'Suds left? :(

'cos the steel used in italian cars of the era was reported to have rusted before it was even out of the presses!

Oh that made me giggle. Definitely haven't seen that colour before. Would look great parked next to a brightly coloured Lamborghini.

Wonder what that says on the back? Possibly not something about ending up in a field for the final 1/2 of it's life and to be rusted into nothing.

Honestly, I've never seen any of these 300zx's (70's and 80's) end up in this condition.

Considering the bonnet is a different colour it must have been built on a particularly bad Friday afternoon too.

It says "Bends? Where we're going we don't need bends!" Unfortunately the flux capacitor on the roof has rusted off

I think it would have read 'BENDS THE RULES & RULES THE BENDS' or something very similar.

Great find here, Ive never been too sure on the 300ZX, it looks like a 240Z thats aged and had steroids at some point, but not recently.

I spy a MKII Fiesta and a ZX with one of those 'Im going to make your rear lamp cluster look bigger' decals on it, never seen one with that.

They are at a Triumph specialist's premises in Cheshire. Some delusional owners think they are worth £££ more than they really are.
